Incense of the day: Marjoram The sea has many magical and healing properties. In ancient Scotland, people treated certain ailments by using the water taken from the crests of nine waves and boiling nine stones in this water. Another option was to take water from nine springs or streams in which cresses grow, and boil the stones in that. At the time of the great harvest festivals (which could last for a week or more), people led their horses down to the edge of the water and had them swim through the waves for healing and protection in the year to come. Here is a water charm which you can use at the sea or any other body of water: By the power Of the ninth wave, With the magic Of the nine stones, I wash away What does not serve. Blessings of water I now invoke. May the Gods of the river, and the spirits of the sea, Bless me with your healing, As your power Flows through me. |
